This is a great place for a quiet off-season hike. On this loop trail, there are views, a forest walk, birding and beach combing. You can read more about the hike on this WTA link:

Meet at 9AM at Camano Island State Park - google map location https://goo.gl/maps/Mce9surHSUzpdGaX8. We expect you to arrive early enough so that you have time to visit the restroom, gear up and be ready to muster at 9.
A Discover Pass is required. You can buy an annual pass for $30, or a day pass for $10.
The Mountaineers are not currently recommending carpooling outside of people that are in your household.
A mask is required. It needs to be easily pulled into place should we encounter hiker traffic on the trail.
Since this is a pace hike Pam and I are planning to lead you thru a few pace levels while we are out so that you can experience them and begin to get a sense of what they feel like.
